Hi,
How is this? I really like the .stl files! I like to see a group of horses running for a file place mantel..

Hi,
I am looking for .stl files of US coins. Mainly the $20 gold "Double Eagle" coin minted in 1933 and the JFK half dollar.
Any help would be appreciated or point me to a place that has such a...

HI,
Well my X axis on my DIY machine is binding up. I need to replace the linear motion bearings. They are 20mm and i think the nomenclature is SBR20UU.
They are the open type on a supported 20mm...

I applied a blur filter to smooth out some lines. Attached is the .dxf file and a preview image from Aspire using a 60 degree vbit using the .dxf file. Hope you can use it.

Here is one that may require less clean up..Hope it helps.

Here is your image with a threshhold filter applied. You can clean it up in MS Paint before you convert it to vector. Other than that import the image into your cad program and draw vectors over the...

Try this one.. Lots and lots of cleanup required. It might be easier to redraw this than clean it up!

Thanks, you made my day!

HI,
Just a seach for M16 on google and Aspire to make the dxf. Took all of about 5 minutes...enjoy. opps had to zip it up to get it small enough to post.

Here is another maze. How are you going to go from the .dxf to the gcode?

Here is the entire section of Verify from the Mach3

Looks like you are making some progress!
Check to make sure that the coupler to motor shaft is tight and the coupler to lead screw is tight.

Sorry you are having problems.
Questions:
1) Is the offset in x and y on each pass or just the second pass and the rest are OK?

2) Can you post some pictures of the bad cut part?

3) Have...

On the MDI (Alt2) page of Mach3 there is a button saying Verify. After you run your part push the "Verify" Button and it will do it.

(I use screenset 2010 and verify is on the run page)

Hi
Are you using an endmill to carve this or are you using a vcarve bit?

hope you figure it out

Try using the "verify" in Mach3. You may be losing steps. The verify will travel home and back again to see if the steps match. It will tell you how many steps difference there is.
Hope this helps

Hi,
I just fixed my noise problem on the Z zero auto tool set. My problem was that i was mounting my fixed tool setting height fixture on an aluminum table. I isolated the plate from the table and...

Make sure that you have all of your settings correct in Mach3. config => ports and pins => input signals. Make sure that the port number is not 0. It should be a 1 if you have one printer port. Also...

Hi,
just wanted to close the loop on this one. I have an 8020 extruded aluminum table which i mounted my fixed tool height setting fixture. I thought that the table was electorally isolated but I...

Hi, you seem to be the guy with the answers today!
I am using ScreenSet2010. I am using your tool change macro and love it!!:banana:
My question is when the machine is still (and i assume...

ger21,
Thanks for the quick reply. I found my problem. I have the A axis motor tuned to a different speed that the X axis. That made the "X" side go faster than the "A" and made my gantry rack. I...

Hi
Are the axes slaved until one side finds it home switch and then the other contines to find it homing switch. Or, does the X axis move then the A axis?
If the later is true, and there is a lot...

If you got the same angel file (angel-f.rar), mine contained a file called angel.max. If yours is different I'd like a copy of it. If not anyone know how to open/convert a ".max" file to .stl?
...

Can I use this implemetation if I have a two motor X axis ? i.e. can I independently home the x and a axis to square the machine?

angel-f.rar contains Angle.max

aues,
I downloaded one of your files. The file extension is ".max". How can i convert this to a ".stl"?

thanks

Hi again,
ger21 thanks for all the advice. I am upgrading up to 1/2 -10 five start lead screws. :cheers:
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for all responses!
A correction first. The motors are wired unipolar and not bipolar, sorry about that. So that mis-type fixes some suggestions :rainfro:

If i change to the 1/2 inch...

Hi,
My DIY CNC machine seems kind of mediocre or lethargic, I am hoping someone can look at my specs and tell me if I am getting all I can out of my system.
So the details:

Check your axis scaling in Mach3. It should be "1" and not "-1". Hope it helps
